New to everything

I don't know a thing about knives or cooking so I thought I would get a start by learning from all of you here. I am amazed at some of the things I have seen while lurking around. I am currently going through the "Youtube Awsome" thread and I am amazed at what some chefs are doing. Amazing skill.

I have to say I am not too excited about your run of the mill cooking shows due to the lousy personalities you have to endure to learn to boil water. So I am 36 male who has never had the need to cook for myself but it is time I learn to do just that. It looks like I have found a great place to learn. Time to buy a starter knife and some stones!!!!!
